cheshire_red Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 With 47 accurate crosses from open play David Cotterill, 5 more than Knockaert in second place. I only saw him in two games but he was easily our best player in both. Only had the one poor game from the reports I read. Also tracked back and showed his experience plus great set piece delivery. If he is available at a realistic price I cannot understand why we would not be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs4Red Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Can't last 90 minutes which is the only problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Because he started like a train and ended up a disinterested pain in the main so I will refrain from going against the grain and saying he did not train but simply switched off his brain - it's that plain that he is on the wane.

Hes been released by Brum I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogkev Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 I agree, I'd sign him in a heart beat and if he can come into the team and affect certain matches, provide a few assists and more decent crosses along the way, then why not? If he fades or loses steam, then he can be subbed or rested - no problem there for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibs Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 It can be difficult to consistently affect the game for long periods playing out wide. I was really impressed with some of his performances and disappointed with a few as well. His delivery (open play and set pieces) were streets ahead of anyone else in our team. I'd like to think we can do better but I wouldn't be disappointed if we signed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set plays and decent crosses has to be where most goals come from, so I'd go for those two even if not much else! I'm just surprised by the stats: yes he could deliver both, but never seemed to be doing so consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly his form dipped a bit, after a fantastic first few games, but to sum him up as 'shit towards the end' is outrageous. He played a very significant part in our recovery last season, and I doubt any player could keep up the form he showed early on for the rest of the season. For what it's worth, I'd take him permanently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 He was very impressive in his first few games but his form dipped considerably - whether this was due to injury or attitude I don't know. I was expecting him to be a bit quicker and better at beating defenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
